BMDB data
Robert Henderson was born bet. Jan 1880 - Mar 1880 Gt Clifton, CUL, ENG, Registered Whitehaven, 1880 Qtr 1, Vol 10b Page 599 (could be 589 or 588, number very unclear in St Caths index.)1,2,3Robert Henderson was assumed to have died cir. Dec 1898 James Pit, Whitehaven, CUL, ENG, which assumption is based on his being the 19yr old Robert, whose dth is reg. in Whitehaven in the 4th qtr of 1898, folio #10b/(?4)12 or (?1)12. He is NOT the one who married Sarah Johnston in 1901, as I originally thought he might be (as that Robert was the son of a Rothery Henderson), and I can't find him anywhere in England in the 1901 census.4,5,6,7,8 He was buried on 2 Dec 1898 Whitehaven, CUL, ENG, aged 19 of James Pit, Whitehaven.8
